Neuralink’s first human trial is more than just a technical milestone; it represents a major leap in potential human-computer interaction.
An expert explain the various concerns that were holding up FDA approval – from potential harmful side effects, to protecting the privacy of users’ brain-wave data.
Brain scans have been used to interpret thoughts, but how far can this technology go?
Neuralink might get all the press – but these unsung heroes are pioneering brain-computer interface technology.
Several companies are in the process of commercialising invasive brain-computer interfaces, including Synchron, Neuralink and Precision Neuroscience.
When designing neuroprosthetic devices for users to control with their thoughts, engineers must take into account the sensory information brains collect from the environment and how it gets processed.
Elon Musk’s brain-machine interface technology could bring humans and computers closer together than ever before, and herald a new frontier in healthcare
BMIs like the ones Neuralink is working on are already used in laboratories around the world as assistive technologies. But melding your mind with an AI is probably not happening anytime soon.
Brain-computer interfacing is a hot topic in the tech world, with Elon Musk’s announcement of his new Neuralink startup. Here, researchers separate what’s science from what’s currently still fiction.
